Abstract
In the present study, we have shown that plums protected granulocyte cells from oxidative stress by their potential to inhibit the intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation. The consumption of 100 g of fresh plums can provide antioxidants equivalent to 613.98–2137.59 mg of vitamin C. The major polyphenols in plums were identified and quantified using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), which revealed that neochlorogenic acid was the predominant polyphenol. Plums are a source of polyphenols with dual effects: antioxidant and anxiolytic, like chlorogenic acid, which may provide health-promoting advantages to the consumer.
